- The first product from the new iQ[Al] architecture will be a new premium C/D segment saloon – a small Jaguar in other words, designed to compete with the Audi A4, BMW 3 Series and Mercedes C-Class. Expect to see it in 2015.
- Power for the new small Jaguar – and future Jaguars – will come from a range of engine including new efficient four-cylinder petrol and diesel engines. These will be built in Wolverhampton as part of a £500 million investment, operational from 2015.

- The C-X17 measures 4,718mm long and 1,649mm tall. A low stance with 23-inch alloy wheels gives the C-X17 a sportingly aggressive presence
